This Railway Map Version 1.0 explains the progress to date and the following process. The Netherlands has a densely-used railway system. The Long-Term Railway Agenda (LTSA) set the ambition for the improvement of the railways as a transport product with the ultimate objective of ensuring that increasing numbers of passengers and shippers perceive the train as an attractive transport option and make use of the railways. This objective can be achieved only with a further general improvement of the railway system. Safety will be a condition attached to these improvements. The current railway protection system performs well, but is ageing. Consequently, the existing system needs to be replaced: this offers opportunities for the introduction of ERTMS (the ‘European Rail Traffic Management System’). ERTMS is the new European standard for train control, including train protection. ERTMS is a new system which offers safety and interoperability benefits. ERTMS also offers potential capacity, speed and reliability benefits. Communication problems are an issue on the HSL-Zuid high-speed passenger railway line: the communication between the train, track and traffic control is still insufficiently stable. For this reason a carefully-considered and justifiable decision about the introduction of ERTMS can be reached solely with further studies are carried out during the coming exploratory phase. This Railway Map version 1.0 constitutes, in accordance with the Multi-Year Programme for Infrastructure, Spatial Planning and Transport (MIRT), the start document for the exploratory phase. This start decision, in accordance with the 'from outline to detail’ principle, makes a number of directional choices: • The Government has, with the support of the House of Representatives of the States-General, decided to introduce ERTMS in the Netherlands in phases; • The planned introduction of ERTMS can enable the Netherlands to make a quantum leap that will endeavour to achieve the following objectives: improvements in railway safety and interoperability and, when feasible, in capacity, speed and reliability; • The objective is to provide for a simple and standardised introduction of ERTMS; • The introduction of ERTMS will begin with the rolling stock. This report specifies four search directions for scenarios for the introduction on the infrastructure (“natural replacement”, “rapid replacement”, “begin with routes with a high capacity (need)”, “begin with routes with a low capacity (need)” and a counterfactual scenario (installation on railway lines to the extent that this follows from European obligations). This report also outlines the further studies to be carried out during the exploratory phase. At present, ERTMS is primarily installed during the construction of new railway lines. Virtually no experience has been acquired with the installation of large-scale systems in the existing railway network. The objective is to achieve a carefully-considered and controlled introduction that causes no hindrance to passengers and shippers, i.e. “the shop must remain open during the alterations”. For this reason the exploratory phases seeks answers to the following questions about the infrastructure and rolling stock: 1. Objectives: to what extent and/or subject to which conditions can ERTMS make a contribution to the specified objectives/benefits? This includes a study of the development in ERMTS' performance and the risks compared to the current situation with the existing train protection in terms of the objectives of safety, interoperability, capacity, speed and reliability. This study will then, for example, zoom in on issues such as ERTMS on yards and the GSM-R system, etc.; ERTMS Railway Map, version 1.0 - Start decision | 3 2. Rollout strategy: the determination of the scope, i.e. where and when can ERTMS be installed on the infrastructure in relation to the objectives and timing of other programmes/projects? Which conversion schedule will be adequate for the rolling stock? In the first instance, consideration is being given to working out the four search directions and the counterfactual scenario in more detail. 3. System selections: which types of system are required where, in part as viewed from the perspective of the entire traffic management chain? 4. Which tendering and contracting strategy (including management and maintenance) is desirable in view of the costs and risks? 5. Use and management processes: what is the influence of ERTMS on the use and management, and which approach should be adopted? 6. What are the estimated costs, including the management and maintenance costs (also in comparison with the current situation), what are the associated risks and the management measures that will be required, and how will the financing be organised? An exploration will also be made of the opportunities available to seek sophisticated combinations with current and planned programmes and projects that can incorporate ERTMS in the design or implementation. Consideration can then be given to the High Frequency Rail Programme and to public transport in the Amsterdam Airport Schiphol-Amsterdam-Almere-Lelystad corridor (OV-SAAL), as well as explorations of the feasibility of and the need to, for example, increase the capacity or reliability of existing railway lines or increase the speeds on a number of railway lines. A review will also be carried out to assess the extent to which the optimisation of the entire traffic management chain – such as, for example, a redesign and improvement of the rail traffic control and disruption management process – in combination with ERTMS could offer benefits including an improvement of the reliability of the railway system. In other words, ERTMS is closely related to other LTSA programmes and projects. The introduction of ERTMS will need to be preceded by a carefully-considered study and decision- making process in view of the complexity of the introduction due to the role played by factors such as the replacement of obsolescent systems, the relationships with other components of the traffic management chain and potential links with other programmes, projects, explorations and needs. It will be necessary to avoid the situation in which scheduling and cost ideals cannot be fulfilled. ERTMS will be introduced only once it is certain that the risks associated with the introduction can be controlled to an adequate extent. This is also the reason why it has been decided that the introduction of ERTMS will begin with an exploratory phase. This phase will provide a clear insight into the studies, data and results that are required. A probabilistic schedule will be drawn up for the exploratory phase. In addition, an inventory of the risks will be made and the measures need to control those risks will be specified. The studies to be carried out will consist of a body of technical, practical, cost and benefit, risk and experiential studies. Most of this information for the specific Dutch situation – an existing densely-used railway network – is not currently available. The studies will generate decision-making information and reduce uncertainties. This process will also extend to an incremental process that can result in the identification of the preference decision: options will be studied and eliminated, with substantiation, during the course of the exploratory phase. During the exploratory phase it will also become clear when decisions on which issues can or cannot be made. This may result in decisions on issues or sub-issues at various times during the exploratory phase: for example, the scope could encompass the entire main railway infrastructure or, conversely, be limited to the introduction of the system for specific railway lines, yards and rolling stock, etc. 4 | Ministry of Infrastructure and the Environment The Hanzelijn railway line is equipped with ERTMS and the current train protection system (dual signalling). The Ministry of Infrastructure and the Environment and the sector will engage in a learning process while they gain an insight into the extent that and the manner in which the potential benefits offered by ERTMS may make a contribution to the achievement of a range of objectives for (the various parts) of the Dutch railway network and into the issues that require further study. The introduction of ERTMS can be a success only when the infrastructure manager – ProRail – the various train operators and the other stakeholders contribute the knowledge and information and perform the duties that are compatible with their (institutional) duties. Cooperation between the Ministry of Infrastructure and the Environment and the sector will be essential. External expertise and advice will be called in when this is worthwhile or necessary. ERTMS Railway Map, version 1.0 - Start decision | 5 2 Background European Rail Traffic Management System Work on the development of ERTMS (the ‘European Rail Traffic Management System’) began in the nineteen-nineties on the European Commission’s initiative. The system was originally intended to break down the technical barriers to interoperability on the European railway network caused by the different train control and protection systems and, ultimately, to reverse the declining competitive strength of the railway sector. As a result, ERTMS is a core element of the European strategy for the revitalisation of the railway sector and the promotion of the freedom of movement of persons and freight. This has resulted in a Council Decision1 prescribing the installation of ERTMS on specific (international) corridors.

  • Finished Vehicle Logistics by Rail in Europe
    Finished Vehicle Logistics by Rail in Europe Version 3 December 2017 This publication was prepared by Oleh Shchuryk, Research & Projects Manager, ECG – the Association of European Vehicle Logistics. Foreword The project to produce this book on ‘Finished Vehicle Logistics by Rail in Europe’ was initiated during the ECG Land Transport Working Group meeting in January 2014, Frankfurt am Main. Initially, it was suggested by the members of the group that Oleh Shchuryk prepares a short briefing paper about the current status quo of rail transport and FVLs by rail in Europe. It was to be a concise document explaining the complex nature of rail, its difficulties and challenges, main players, and their roles and responsibilities to be used by ECG’s members. However, it rapidly grew way beyond these simple objectives as you will see. The first draft of the project was presented at the following Land Transport WG meeting which took place in May 2014, Frankfurt am Main. It received further support from the group and in order to gain more knowledge on specific rail technical issues it was decided that ECG should organise site visits with rail technical experts of ECG member companies at their railway operations sites. These were held with DB Schenker Rail Automotive in Frankfurt am Main, BLG Automotive in Bremerhaven, ARS Altmann in Wolnzach, and STVA in Valenton and Paris. As a result of these collaborations, and continuous research on various rail issues, the document was extensively enlarged. The document consists of several parts, namely a historical section that covers railway development in Europe and specific EU countries; a technical section that discusses the different technical issues of the railway (gauges, electrification, controlling and signalling systems, etc.); a section on the liberalisation process in Europe; a section on the key rail players, and a section on logistics services provided by rail.

  • Translating Train Management to Norway
    Translating Train Management to Norway Lasse Gullvåg Sætre Master thesis at the Center for Technology, Innovation and Culture Supervised by: Tone Druglitrø and Helge Ryggvik University of Oslo Norway, May 2017 I, Lasse Gullvåg Sætre, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Abstract This thesis explores the transition of Norwegian rail signaling from me- chanically to digitally based systems, delving into the translations of the European standard ERTMS to Norwegian railways. Through digital, tech- nical and bureaucratic informants, this study investigates the preparations and makings of what promises to be one of the biggest revolutions in the technology to date. The ERTMS is a railway signaling technology, an EU political technology, and a case of digitalized European information infrastructures, known by many names, such as smart cities or intelligent services. Studied through the Norwegian railway system’s digital integra- tion towards Europe during the last 20 years, this thesis inquires into the material semiotic production of rail governance in the Norwegian context, as well as what it means to be an EEA member. From expert informers from the Norwegian infrastructure manager Jernbaneverket and its partial successor Bane NOR, through documents and field studies/interventions, the ways in which key players of the Norwegian and European railway sectors change are explored, mapping out the issue of signaling, and how players prepare for a transition that was always part of larger ideas of mo- bility, machines and governance, extending far out from rail space.

Jörn Pachl, FIRSE Professor of railway systems engineering at Technische Universität Braunschweig Braunschweig, June 2020 https://doi.org/10.24355/dbbs.084-202006161443-0 Railway Signalling Principles 3 PREFACE Railway signalling systems are complex control systems. As a result of the long railway histo- ry, there are a lot of specific national solutions based on different technologies. The key to learn how signalling systems work is to understand the fundamental control principles these systems are based on. By definition, the signaling principles are the underlying principles of a signalling-based safeworking system that are based on the national standards but are inde- pendent of the requirements of a specific railway operating company and of the technology used. This E-book explains the fundamental principles all railway signalling systems have in com- mon. It is done in a generic way that does not focus on specific national solutions. The inten- tion is to provide core knowledge of long-term value that will not be outdated just by the next generation of technology. The content of this E-book is based on the long-standing experi- ence of teaching railway operations and signalling at universities and higher vocational train- ing institutions in different parts of the world.
